小作文:推荐信

Dear El,

It has been a long time since we had a chat last time. How have you been these days? Recently I watched a movie Braveheart on Netflix and thought you might love it as well. So I recommend this epic and historical movie to you.

The first reason is the protagonist William Wallace-a Scottish warrior-shows his perfect acting skills and real medieval life to the audiences. Second is that you are a big fan of history, so you will learn many historical backgrounds of conflicts between England and Scotland, which were fierce at that time. Last but not least, the film also advocates the spirit of freedom and the fight against unjust fate.

I hope you would enjoy the movie, and I am looking for your reply. Have a nice day!

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming

大作文:谈环境

There are two youngsters, in this drawing, sitting on a boat who chatter and smoke happily. Surprisingly, lots of fishes are floating on the river due to the garbage chucked by them. Still, the rowing guide unexpectedly ignores their misbehavior and turns a blind eye to their actions as if nothing happened.

The cartoonist intends to illustrate that human activities have impaired nature. Over recent years, the continually improving standard of living has enabled Chinese people to patronize the increasingly popular tourism, which contributes a lot to historical sites and help local governments develop significantly. Yet the side effects should raise our concerns in that over-tourism has also exerted irreversible damage to the fragile environment, and the situation will deteriorate because of inaction and indifference.

In my viewpoint, the environmental protection brooks no delay, considering the critically undermined nature. Importantly, we should leave a clean one to posterity, so everyone must take action right now to better the environment, and the government, too, needs to formulate and implement policies to restrict over-tourism. Only in these ways can we embrace a prosperous, progressive, and promising outlook.

  The Cultural Hotpot There is a hotpot standing in the middle of the picture, containing various kinds of food with different names such as swan lake, enlightenment, Confucianism, etc., as if all of them were mixing perfectly and harmoniously. The caption under the cartoon says: the cultural hot pot is both delicious and nutritious. The cartoon intends to illuminate that our culture is not an isolated island where folks only absorb things that they are familiar with. What we need to assimilate, however, is cultural features from different nations and various races. And by this means, the hotpot would be so delicious and nutritious that everyone in this society can relish what they have achieved eventually and can unconsciously affect each other afterward. In my viewpoint, diverse cultures enormously broaden ones’ horizons. In other words, whatever we are in touch with, it may provide a different way in which we see the world where there may be another treasure in an unnoticed corn...

与古典神话相关的词源

  本期写一点关于古希腊罗马神话(Classical mythology)相关的词源故事,希望可以帮助大家更好地记住与之有关的单词。 1. Echo Echo 我们都知道是回声的意思。在希腊神话中,有个山岳仙女(Mountain nymph)也叫 Echo,她经常用美丽的声音,迷人的故事故意缠住好妒的赫拉(Hera,宙斯之妻),转移她的注意力,以便于宙斯(Zeus)可以趁机与其他仙女幽会。不料东窗事发,愤怒的赫拉让 Echo 失去了声音,作为惩罚。此后 Echo 只能重复别人所发出的声音,于是 Echo 一词进入英语之后就有了“回声”的意思。后来 Echo 遇到了 Narcissus(那耳喀索斯,又译作纳西瑟斯),他们俩一见钟情,可是因为 Echo 无法表达自己的爱意,她郁郁而终,最后只剩下声音回荡在山谷之中。 2. Narcissism Echo 喜欢的 Narcissus 正是 narcissism(自恋)的来源,他是个帅气到爱上自己的男子。传说他出生后,他的母亲向预言家提瑞西阿斯(Tiresias)询问自己儿子的命运。Tiresias说,Narcissus 只要不看到自己的脸,就能得长寿。因此,尽管 Narcissus 长大后成为全希腊最俊美的男子,他却从不知道自己长什么样子。 Narcissus 的美貌让全希腊的女性为之倾倒,但他对所有前来求爱的女人都无动于衷。被他拒绝的女子们都要求复仇女神 Nemesis(涅墨西斯)惩罚那耳喀索斯。Nemesis 同意了她们的请求。一次打猎归来时,他在池水中看见了自己俊美的脸,于是爱上了自己的倒影,无法从池塘边离开,终于憔悴而死。这样就实现了 Tiresias 在他幼年时所作出的预言。之后 Narcissus 也就成了自恋的代名词。 3. Nemesis Nemesis 是复仇女神,该词直接被用在了英语中,意为天谴,报应或者 应得 的失败。因为复仇女神是一位比较正面的形象,所以 nemesis 也是偏正面的,通常是坏人所得的惩罚。 其中 Nem 作为 nemesis 的词根,意思是 distribute, assign(按照每个人的行为 分配 结果,好人好报,恶人恶报)。还有其他单词也源自于 nem, 表示管理(arrange),分配(distribute): autonomy anomy,a 表否定,不管理...

词缀讲解后缀篇之 “ive”

  本期是补充一下 这篇文章 ,做一个关于后缀 “ive” 的更完整的介绍。 首先介绍一下 ive 做后缀的意思,主要有两个: having the nature(性质) of a thing tending to the action indicated 与  ous  不同的是,ive 如果做为suffix,那么它的词干(stem,就是 ive 前面的单词,与 root 为近义词,起到表意作用),只能是 动词!动词!动词! (而 ous 只能是名词)。这种用法比较正式的说法为: implied by a v or by a v 下面分析以上两个意思,第一个比较简单,某物拥有某个性质(nature),例如 addictive,有使人让人成瘾(addict)的性质  \Rightarrow ⇒  成瘾性。同理 creative  \Rightarrow ⇒  创造性。 第二个 indicated 是个被动用法, \text{the action indicated} the action indicated  这个短语意思是 被表明的的动作 ,tending to就是趋向于这个动作。其中被 indicated 的东西就是词干,tending to 这个部分由 ive 表达。举个例子:Simon is active(act + ive),这里 act 就是 indicated 的东西,ive表示 Simon 有 act 的倾向  \Rightarrow ⇒  Simon 是有活动(act)倾向(ive)的  \Rightarrow ⇒  Simon很活跃。 正因为 ive 能表性质,所以大多用于正式的语境,所以在大量专业术语中能看到它,比如数学,计算机,英语… 下面介绍一些相关单词,可能有部分专业性词汇,不感兴趣的跳过即可。 Conclusive:Conclude 由 Con + close 组成,共同关闭  \Rightarrow ⇒  总结。总结 + ive  \Rightarrow ⇒  总结性的。 Transitive,过渡性的。在语法中翻译为及物动词(transitive verb)...

词缀讲解后缀篇之“ous”

在上一期已经简单介绍了 ‘ive’ 这个后缀,后续再考虑补充该后缀的其他性质。本期主要讲解后缀 ‘ous’,希望能帮助到大家~~ 先举几个以ous结尾的单词: mysterious curious felicitous (幸福的) homogeneous ( 考过 。同质,相似的,数学中意为齐次,homogenous equations“齐次方程”) 很多同学认为以 ‘ous’ 结尾的单词是形容词,所以ous是形容词后缀。但是知道ous是形容词后缀几乎对于我们背单词没有任何帮助,因为还有大把其他后缀(‘ic’, ‘ical’, ‘ish’)同样也是表形容词,所以仅仅知道是形容词这一点信息量太小,不仅对于记忆(memorize)单词 没有帮助 ,反而加大背诵的负担。故如何区别 不同后缀 是提高的关键。 重点来了 ,ous有以下几个用法: 表 数量多 、富足(richly possessing) 表性质(of the nature of) 表相似(like) 第一个性质表数量多估计很多同学没有意识到,主要讲一下这个含义,因为最常见,而且可以用来解释很多单词的意思。 Mysterious 先来个简单的,神秘的。Mystery + ous,很多神秘的事 => 神秘的。 Hilarious Hilarity“高兴,欢乐” + ous。很多欢乐 => 快乐的,通常指 非常 好笑,比happy更甚。Hilary(希拉里)作为人民也是此意。 Luciferous 难度稍大,意为带来光的,该单词由三部分组成  luc “光” +  fer  “带来” + ous “多”。 luc = lux 是光 “light ”的词根。其中 x = eks( 讲过 ),e和u合并为u(元音变化无所谓),k = c(发音相同),s辅音省略。 举个例子帮助同学们记忆lux:玩过英雄联盟的肯定知道里面有个女英雄叫拉克丝,那么她的英文名就叫做 Lux ,就是光的意思啦。她的 所有技能 (光芒四射、光明束縛……)都与光有关,应该有画面了吧?如果女同学没玩过英雄联盟的也有一个记忆的方法,去逛一下超市肯定能找到力士(lux,读音相似)洗发水,没见过的同学去 京东 买一瓶 ^_^。洗发水的目的当然是让头发更有光泽啦,所以取名力士lux。 fer作为词根意为带来(carry)...

考研高频单词讲解-1

本期写一篇考研高频单词的讲解,主要是从词根词缀出发写一点个人背单词的技巧和心得,或者是一些小的辨析之类的。词频的来源是 这里 。 授人鱼不如授人以渔,先推荐两个个我常用的词根查询网站(全英+科学上网): Etymonline Wiktionary 前期直接看可能难度较大,可以参考 http://www.dicts.cn/ 这个网站,逐渐熟悉后再慢慢适应英文版。 话不多说,直接开始吧~~ 1. industrial industry的形容词,注意industry有勤奋的意思,而industrial没有【勤奋的】的意思,只有【工业的】的意思。Industry由 indu + stry组成,indu 由indo结尾变化而来(元音变化很常见,可以理解为a = e = i = o =u),意为 in或者within , stry = stru = structure。综合起来就是在里面建造=》工业。 2. involve in(≈indo)+volve(旋转,拟声词,模仿旋转的声音) = 卷入,涉及。Volvo沃尔沃也是源自同一个词根,元音变化又用上啦,e 变成了 o。volve这个词根的同源词也很多,需要单开一节讲解。 3. moral 这个单词从词源比较难记,因为无法得出有效的记忆规律。所以多个同源单词一起记忆比较方便。 Demoralize 这个单词翻译考过,de = off 去掉,morale(士气),懂点词根很容易就能知道他的意思啦。比如LOL中被Ace(团灭)了就非常地demoralizing哈哈。如果每人拿到一个人头就叫做team ace,虽然通常都是adc(attack damage carry), ap(ability power carry)拿人头。 说到ace这个单词也很有趣,ace是扑克(poker)中最大的。有一种说法是,1789年法国大革命之后,平民获得了更多权力,于是最底层ace就变成最大的啦。 如果各位有兴趣还可以学习扑克中的历史+英语, Jack ,  Queen ,  King 对应了不同的人物,其中黑桃q(queen of spades,spade是铲子)原型是雅典娜(Athena),还有很多有意思的人物,这里就不展开啦,有兴趣可以自己查阅以上超链接。 Morale 加e变名词,有道德的状态(concerning mor...

英语中数字的词根

  本期谈谈使用频率较高的数字,其中包含了一些有用的词根,记住之后可以举一反三地学习。 1. One One 这个单词不只是出现在英语中,通过元音变化可以变成其他语言中的“一”,比如: 德语:ein(‘o’ 变 ‘ei’,去‘e’。) 冰岛语:einn 瑞典语:en(‘o’ 变 ‘e’。) 荷兰语:een 法语:un,une(u = o) 西班牙、意大利语:uno,una(u = o, a = e),UNO 牌就是在最后一张牌需要喊出 “uno” 因此而得名。 Uni- 和 mono- 在英语中作为前缀,也表示“一”。 Unicycle,独轮车 Unicorn,独角兽 Unilateral,单边的 Unicellular,单细胞的 Monopoly(mono “一”,poly “卖”),一个人卖  \Rightarrow ⇒  垄断。 Monotone(tone,音调),一个音调  \Rightarrow ⇒  单调的(可表示函数单调性monotonicity)。 2. Two Twin,twain,twice 都是与 “two” 直接相关的单词。 还有两个前缀可以表示“二”,bi- 和 di- Bi- Binary,二进制 Bliateral,双边的 Bicycle,二轮车 Bipedal,双足行走的,ped表示“足”,al 表形容词(p = f,t = d,发音类似故相等,参考格林定律) Bilingual,两种语言的,lingua 表舌头,language 也由 lingua 变化而来 Di- Dioxide,二氧化物 Diphthong,双元音 Duo,双人的 Double,双倍的 Deuce(deu = di,ce 表名词),平局,特指在 tennis 和 table tennis 等比赛中,出现需要连续赢两次的平手,比如网球的 40:40,乒乓球的10:10等。 注:这里 w 算作半元音,所以也可以元音变化。参考 这篇文章 第一,我们称字母w和y为半元音字母,是因为这两个字母既可以用在音节的开头做辅音字母使用,又可以用在音节的末尾当元音使用。如,wet,water中的w在音节的开头元音字母前,它就是辅音字母,而few,now中的w在音节的末尾与其它元音字母构成字母组合发一个元音,few的发音是/ fju: ...

考研高频单词讲解-4

本文讲考研高频单词的第四期,目前还不打算讲介词和后缀(稍难),先以常见词根为主,本期会加上 英英翻译 ,难度稍稍加大,希望大家能够适应。 31.  interpret 词根组成(inter + pret),其中inter很简单,是between之意。但是pret词根不好理解,它来自词根 per- 的第五个意思(to sell)!per-的意思相当之多,需要另开贴慢慢说。再根据 wiktionary 的来源,pret来自于拉丁语 pretium (price),也很好理解,字母经过简单的元音、辅音变化就从拉丁语到了英语。 结合两个意思,互相(inter)交换价格(price),所以需要理解,解释(explain,expound)。 在拉丁语中,interpres本身就是掮客,中间商(broker)的意思,这就太明显啦,掮客起到的就是解释,沟通双方的作用,进一步从侧面表明了该单词的意思。 英英释义: 1.explain the meaning of (information, words, or actions). 2.translate orally or into sign language the words of a person speaking a different language. (这里联想记忆一下,通常懂两国语言的中间商更好赚差价 ∩_∩) 然后说一下 broker 这个词,词源不明,但是把他拆分成 broke + er,打破人,因为掮客打破了顾客和上游供货商的关系,一下就记住了吧’◡’ 32.  pattern 最好不要简单翻译为:图案。看一下 英英 : 名词:a repeated decorative design. 动词:decorate with a recurring design. 两个都强调了重复性(recur = re + occur,计算机中称为递归) 而不是单纯的图案,比如这种就属于pattern。 另:不要和pardon搞混了,读音有点类似。 33.  plate 这个单词与flat很近,根据 格林定律 (不是考研数学的格林公式!),有f=p,所以这两单词都有"平"在里面,所以盘子,车牌都是这个单词,显然都是平的。 此外,它还表示板甲,中世纪的骑士穿的就是这种 plate armor (armor:...
